There was a slight increase in turnout during the 2019 Bartholomew County 4-H Fair, when compared to last year.
Attendance during the nine-day event is estimated at 93,557, fair board president Mark Case said. Based on vehicle counts, that is about 250 more patrons than in 2018, fair board president Mark Case said.
It’s likely the increase in attendance resulted from no significant rain during fair hours from July 5-13, Case said.
“However, it was also very hot,” the fair board president said.
